Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Providing a platform for my students to learn about the arts enriches them while at school as well as prepares them for life after school. Arts subjects encourage self-expression and creativity and can build confidence as well as a sense of individual identity. I notice a huge change in my students while engaging in the arts.

Engaging in the arts helps improve academic performance, not just through creativity, but it improves learning in math, science, and the literary field.

Art is an expression of our thoughts, emotions, intuitions, and desires; The materials such as canvas boards, paints, and brushes help me bring this to my school.
